Biofuels Digest Names Prince George Among Top 10 Bioeconomy Places in Canada

The Biofuels Digest, the world’s most widely read biofuels daily, names Prince George in the top 10 hot Bioeconomy places to watch in Canada.

“Prince George is the point central for the Canfor, Licella advanced biofuels JV. In March 2017, we reported that the Canadian Minister of Innovation, Science and Economic Development, Navdeep Bains, pledged a $13M non-repayable contribution through Sustainable Development Technology Canada that will enable Canfor to further develop and demonstrate Licella’s technology — it will take what is a currently a waste product from its production processes and develop it into a low-cost biofuels product.

Canfor’s new biocrude could be refined by existing refineries into next-generation biofuels and biochemicals that can be easily integrated into conventional fuels markets.”
